| 2. | spermatogonia-spermatocyte-spermatid-sperms |
| 3. | spermatid-spermatocyte-spermatogonia-sperms |
| 4. | spermatogonia-spermatid-spermatocyte-sperms |
Sertoli cells are found in:
| 1. | ovaries and secrete progesterone |
| 2. | adrenal cortex and secrete adrenaline |
| 3. | seminiferous tubules and provide nutrition to germ cells |
| 4. | pancreas and secrete cholecystokinin |

| Statement I: | The release of sperms into the seminiferous tubules is called spermiation. |
| Statement II: | Spermiogenesis is the process of formation of sperms from spermatogonia. |

2. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
3. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
4. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
